Taxes paid at the time of purchase are what type of cost?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

According to the ServiceNow Hardware Asset Management documentation, original cost is the amount paid to acquire an asset, including any taxes, fees, shipping, installation, or other expenses directly related to the purchase. Original cost is used to calculate depreciation and amortization of an asset over its useful life. The other options are not the type of cost that taxes paid at the time of purchase are. Operating expense, operating cost, and capital expense are different ways of classifying the costs of using and maintaining an asset after it is purchased.

But operating cost includes expenses incurred in day-to-day operations, like taxes.

I think it's original cost because it's part of the initial purchase price.

D. Capital Expense, no doubt about it. I bet the tax man would love to see us all treat it as an operating cost!

Operating expense? Nah, that's for the day-to-day stuff. Taxes are more like a one-time thing, so it's gotta be a capital expense.

I see your point, but I still think it's a capital expense because it's a one-time cost for the asset.

Actually, I think it's an original cost because it's directly related to the purchase.

No way, I'm pretty sure it's an operating cost. It's part of the cost of doing business.

Hmm, taxes at the time of purchase? That's gotta be a capital expense, right? I mean, who wants to pay for that out of their pocket money?

Yeah, I agree. It's not something you want to pay for out of your own pocket.

I think you're right, it's definitely a capital expense.
